    Search on ebay for parcel delivery

    You will find items like #290019237885 and #120020989139

    Offering Next Day upto 30KG from £7.79 and Two Day from £6.95

    I am neither of the sellers so this is not advertising, I have noted those auctions as they were the cheapest on searching

    Hope it helps!

    I've just started using Pharos International

    and am very impressed. They use UPS as the carrier but at far less cost than going to UPS directly. Mostly UK parcels but I also got an amazingly cheap price to the Irish Republic. You can get quotes from the site.
